hi peter, having used (in the not too distant past) a full version of window
eyes, i didn't see eloquence as an option in W.E. this is one of the main
reasons i haven't switched away from JFW, as (call me old fashioned if you
like) i like eloquence and can't stand the default synthe in w.e

Hi,
Well, as I said, I've gone over, well, am in the process of, to window eyes.
My impressions are that everything just seems to work with this new computer
without much less effort than on other machines. I tried it with Jaws and
got the old issue of the ctrl key locking on and nothing I could do about
it, which I have been nagging Sight and Sound and FS about for over a year.
There is a Jaws keyboard layout if you really want it, but I would learn the
new keystrokes and change the ones you don't like. I think the speech is
sometimes slightly weird having been used to Jaws but it never seems to
crash and it is definitely quicker than Jaws. It'll probably even speed your
existing machine up.
Cheers
Dave
